The telescopic design incorporates clamp lever locking mechanisms and five pole sections, which yield an adjustable length from 2.6 to 9.3 feet.

Q: 1. Can this boom be adapted to support 8lbs lighting gear (monolight, 3' octa softbox+grid) 5/8 end spigot? Max horizontal load?

Q: 3. Can I add an internal cable myself?

Q: 4. What is the thinnnest tube diameter, ie when fully extended what is the diameter of the outermost section?

A: The specific information on diameter for the sections of the E-Image 5-Section Telescoping Carbon Fiber Microphone Boompole is not provided by the manufacturer.

Q: 5. Arca Swiss computable? Reviewer "Buz" says "This tripod came with a quick release plate which is good because it is not Arca Swiss compatible."

A: This tripod head is Arca compatible.

Q: 6. Would this tripod securely hold a d810 with a 24-70 f2.8?

A: Yes, it has a load capacity of 26lbs, although shooting vertically would be a bit of a trickier proposition. I don't think it would balance well, in which case an L bracket would be ideal.

Q: 10. Are the ball head components metal or plastic?

A: The Ball Head included with the Benro Tripster Travel Tripod (1 Series, Black, Aluminum) is made of mostly metal with some plastic and rubber parts.

[Clamp Lever] I am so glad I went for the longer boom! It is light, super long and easy to use. I love how compact for traveling. And the case is great to keep it clean and protected. Very happy. 5

[Clamp Lever] Worked with this guy on a TV series and a feature film now. Nice and light and the tightening locks always worked 5

[Carbon Fiber] Have not had a chance to use this boom yet, but here are some of my initial impressions. It is heavier than my other pole as well as thicker. It is also studier and thus better suited for more active shoots. The locking rings are very sturdy and have a rubber coating that makes them easier to lock and open. The tip is actually reversible with a smaller tip on the opposite side. The Internal cable seems to be of good quality. Only rattles if the pole is subjected to shaking, so noise from the cable is not likely to be an issue in most situations. The foam padding covers the entire lower section which gives more comfortable areas to hold regardless of position. 5

[Carbon Fiber] If you're using a wireless receiver solution, look no further. This little guy fits in a carry-on no problem, is lightweight and durable. The holder is actually nicer than it appears in photos. And if you don't have to fumble with a wrap-around XLR cable, you're in great shape for not too much money. Boom. 5

[Carbon Fiber] Perfect for my mini-location kit which lives in a Pelican 1520. Solid construction and top-quality items with no shortcuts in performance. I really love each of these items for their minimal footprint and exceptional build quality. The only negative I can offer is to mirror others comments, the foam on the boom holder is very easy to dislodge. I'm not even sure you need it, but it seems for the price they could figure something out. Definitely recommended if you need a super small boom rig. 5

[5] This boompole is really lightweight and fits in a carry-on size pelican air case. Perfect for keeping things light and traveling! 5

[2.75 lb] Worth buying as a spare boompole. 5

[5] I own the The 8.5' 4-Section Telescoping Carbon Fiber Microphone Boompole. I really like the comfy foam to keep your hands warm and protect against sweating to make it easier to grab and handle. It works really well. I also like the easy way to screw in and out to extend and shorten the pole. I also like how if you need to change the end for a different type of screw adaptor. I also like the protective bag for the pole. It is nicely made with some pockets. I would recommend this boom pole. It's nicely made. 5
